We train leaders inlife-to-life disciple-making.
Discipleship isn't as simple as adding some classes or programs to your ministry. It's also not as simple as organic mentorship. It takes a balanced approach of structure and relationship building that we refer to as life-to-life disciple-making.
I began working with John Radcliffe of NCM two years ago. I was searching for an effective way to disciple and grow leaders in our congregation. John introduced me to ‘The Way of the Alongsider’ as a tool for growing disciples and a disciple making culture in our congregation. Earlier this year John led a...
I have been meeting with Nate for discipleship and coaching for close to 3 years now. Every time I see or speak with Nate, I am uplifted and encouraged both spiritually and emotionally. He helped focus my faith towards the call of the Great Commission and the Greatest Commandment, which has increased and made me...
The discipleship training that NCM has provided has been excellent at every step. Our team has learned the necessity and value of relationships in the disciple-making process, as opposed to merely teaching the Bible from the pulpit and expecting changed lives. We’ve also learned practical tools for developing relationships, how to leverage personal influence to...

The Great Commission, to go and make disciples, is the heartbeat of every evangelical church but the defining of what that looks like and how to do that is not always easy. It has been a blessing for us to partner with The Navigators Church Ministry. They have brought wisdom and clarity to our conversation...
Our church has worked faithfully with The Navigators for nearly three years. I’ve appreciated their insistence that we build a discipleship culture at our church rather than simply offer discipleship programs. Our partnership is now yielding results. We have multiple disciple-making triads who are now reproducing other triads. Another great result is that The Navigators...

As pastors of Vineyard Christian Church, we’ve enjoyed our partnership with The Navigators to help break ground to become an intentional disciple-making church. Their staff has come alongside our team...
Thirty-five years ago, as a brand new Christian in college, I was taught the basics of discipleship through The Navigators. A lot of this happened through the one-on-one training from my friend Tom. This changed my life. Today, I’m the Discipleship Coordinator at East Richland Friends and The Navigators are again here to help. Their...
